Letters To Ed :-)

"We've been duped by the Republicans. Kentucky Sen. and minority leader Mitch McConnell in a news conference one day after the election, stated that the single and sole goal of the GOP over the next two years is: to make Barack Obama a single term president. What an arrogant and obnoxious goal and statement. There agenda before the election was to get votes by promising that there first goals were jobs, the economy and health care reform. It seems their goal is to grab power, not to do things for the people that are in need of jobs and or unemployment pay, health care for those that don't have it, and the people losing their homes. This is the same party that wanted the auto plants and their suppliers to go out of business. We are just coming back from what they did to this country, and now we have them back to do the same things to our country again. What a mess the next two years is going to bring to this country. Talk about partisanship." Carl D. Leow Rogers Cit

...Also, archaeological evidence exists indicating that they may have communicated by speech, used tools and engaged in artistic endeavors. Reconstructions of Neanderthal men, women and children have become much more intelligent-looking and pleasing to the modern eye." (Wicki)

Ah, the oh so convincing artist renderings. I watched an artist render a giraffe's head onto a human woman's body once. It was quite imaginative. If one could see an artist's rendering of Amos, you'd notice the head of a jack-a-s-s captaining the body of a three-toed sloth.

More applicable quotes:

"One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know." (Groucho Marx)

"I've a good mind to join a club and beat you over the head with it." (Groucho Marx)

"160,000 year old hominid fossils at Jebel Irhoud in Morocco were previously thought to be Neanderthal, but it is now clear that they are early modern humans." (Wicki)

Of course they are. Check out modern Pygmies, who are almost always less than 59 inches tall, (that's less than 5 feet for our mathematically challenged friends). Their skeletons look remarkably ape-ish. If you slap a fur tanktop shirt with only strap on him, place a club in his hand, stoop him over a bit, and draw hair all over him, you'd have Amos's missing soul-mate.

"Early artistic reconstructions mostly presented Neanderthals as beastly creatures, emphasizing hairiness and rough, dark complexion. More recent reconstructions acknowledge that due to the lineage...in European latitude there is reason to believe that Neanderthals were fair-skinned and probably with no more facial hair than modern man.

Northern Hammerskins sounds more like a group of pubescent boys.

The Neanderthals migrated to europe 800,000 years ago and successfully mated with the homo sapiens who arrived from Africa 400,000 years later. The four year Neanderthal genome mapping project shows most of us have some of their genes. Thanks to the David H. Koch funding for science foundation we no longer have to pretend a Sky Fairy created Adam and Eve 6,000 years ago. The republican party is divided against itself.

Good for you little camper. Come all the way out of your darkened funk. Did a person of the cloth perform an exorcist on ya'? It'd be worthy of consideration, considering.

There are many people of the cloth down at your local fabric outlet. They don't do exorcisms, but they can cut away that "pin the tail on the donkey" blindfold you've been wearing since birth. What you are now, is more like afterbirth.

They are all individual souls, with freewill. Your side should also allow them free thought and free expression of those thoughts, rather than the name-calling and vitriol you heap on them without variation. That's what racism looks like, if you're looking for illustrations.

We also admire and respect our Senators and Representatives of color, while you demonize them. You guys ought read the history of your own party if you'd like to insert some truth into your pronouncements. Facts and acts are much more stubborn than false accusations. Do you enjoy your roles? Ever feel like walking ipecac? A rusty cog in an outdated machine? Where's the fun in it? The truth? The progress?

You and Norm are the only ones lying and hating here. That's plain. Disagreement is not hate. It's the basis for debate. You might attempt redemption by providing some examples to add ***** to your accusations, if that's possible. You could also list one or two of those world-betterment things you mention.

Where? I don't hate anybody, not even you. I do have much more respect for fellow conservatives, because it is a much more reasoned, pragmatic approach, and is where political wisdom lives. It is also where the most prosperity and freedom for the most people resides.

Progressive liberalism is ridiculous in my opinion, especially the way it desires to regulate everything towards government totalitarianism. Too much genocide occurs under leftist rule. History has painted an accurate but grotesque picture of that, which you can view anytime you choose. If you want to revisit that, stay the course, as you are certainly pointed in that direction.

Conservatives believe that minority individuals can be anything they desire.They can even be conservatives...you know, think outside the democrat plantation. We don't try to pigeonhole people by race. To us there is no such thing as a fake black person or a fake brown, beige, red, yellow or white person.

The right wingers spend 50% of their waking time hating and 50% making up lies. They all hate the same people and groups and they all tell the exact same lies. They throw tantrums like bitter little angry children as the world changes around them for the better.

The United Northern and Southern Knights of the KKK,(Three Chapters). Volksfront, Vinlander Michigan, Crew 38, Blood and Honor American Division, Aryan Terror Brigade, and the Northern Hammerskins (Racist Skinheads). Ad Nauseum, you idiot, probably belong to a couple, shrill! 1, 018 hate groups(and counting) in AMERICA. All these hate groups advocate against and malign an entire class of people based on their immutable characteristics, endowed upon them by the Man Upstairs. I tell you, rshrill, you sack of crap, YOU are a HATEful 'human' being.

Pathetic case of bizarro world type HATE. The very list and the entities on it illustrate the inner mind of a true hate monger. Instead of exposing hate and loathing, all the post of two days ago by the usual hater in this forum, does is expose himself as a person who hates his fellow man. Get the behind us.

REALLY!? Michelle Bachmann on the Intelligence committee? I had little respect for old Orange face, Boehner, now absolutely none. No courage and no sense in his pick of a paranoid ditz. This is GOP leadership. The 'tip of the spear', indeed. The woman has little knowledge in foreign policy.

I didn't know any of the Lords prayed and I wonder Whom They pray to:) Even the christians don't agree with the christians what 'the lords prayer' is. As if the Bush holy wars in the middle east aren't enough the Chrislicans want to start holy wars in public schools.
